Our college logo
Yarrabilba means 'place of song' in the language of the people of the Yugambeh Language Group.
Our logo was created to represent two of our greatest passions: nature and community. We have captured the importance of our relationship with our partner primary schools by incorporating their schools' colours into our logo. The result is our beautiful songbird, pictured with wings-spread as it prepares to take flight. It is our hope that through participating in our College community, each of our students will 'sing their own song'.
